UNSPSC 50625101: Non GMO albion onion purees

The variety of Non GMO onions known as Non GMO albion onions. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50625101 Non GMO albion onion purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The single posted opportunity tagged under this code—the State of Illinois's FY-27 IVHQ quarterly food order—covers general weekly food supply including diverse protein, dairy, produce, and prepared items, with no specificity to albion onion purees or any onion product mentioned in the solicitation abstract. The code mismatch between the taxonomy label and the actual procurement scope signals that either the tagging is inaccurate or albion onion purees are not a discrete line item in Illinois's current food procurement.

State and local buyers active in food procurement during the past six months—including Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, multiple Georgia school districts, and Missouri school systems—are soliciting across fresh produce, canned vegetables, frozen specialty items, and bulk proteins through IFB, RFP, and RFQ structures, but none of the representative opportunities name onion purees as a distinct commodity. If albion onion purees are procured by state and local entities, they are either bundled into broader produce or ingredient categories under higher-level UNSPSC codes, or the market for this specific product variant is too narrow to generate recent visible solicitation activity at the commodity level.
